Version 12 or 11 and IIS (Internet Information Services)

Hello,

I develope intranet web sites on my personal computer for which I use IIS and Visual Studio 2010. I upgraded to version 12 from version 10 and now find opening a web site is extreamly slow. I also tried version 11 and it has the same problem. I have done a total uninstall of ZA and run the clean tool. I have worked with support and tried their suggestions of turning off web scan, setting public zone security to medium. Neither of these made any difference. Accessing the internet is not a problem it is only sites hosted on my computer. I would stay at version 10 but I understand it will soon stop getting new virus diffinitions. I am running Window 7 Professional x64 with ZoneAlarm Security Suite.

George, Thank you for replying. The computer in question is not a server and not running a server OS. The application in question runs on a Window 7 Profrssional personal computer. IIS comes with that version of Windows. I have been using ZA for several years now without any problems until now.

The problem is this ZA is never tested or QA'ed in this environment.
Its never was designed to work on a PC with a webserver , no matter how little its used.

This is similar to people who have dual boot PC's. We don't test or make our software for that environment thus even if you been using it for years with no issues and all of sudden it does not work with a new version of ZA, its still not supported.

Only suggestion we have is go back to a version that did work and stick with it and never upgrade.

yes, moreover version 10 runs a very old antivirus engine. Regardless the AV signature, the protection that can provide is suboptimal. As a general principle running old security tools is like running no tools. Better to move to another solution that you can keep fully up to date.

Sorry we can't suggest another product. Please check on the internet for mainstream antivirus/firewall solutions and test them before buying.
Most products comes with a trial.

In case anyone is wondering or has a similar problem I have deinstalled Zone Alarm and installed ~~snip~~ another software. So far very pleased with it. Works very well with IIS and Visual Studio 2010 and 2008.
